“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris

Let Me Be Even More Explicit in Case Your Ears Need Unblocking

This so fucking isn't about some stupid people realizing that there is racism and being “shocked, shocked.”

This is about everyone on the planet witnessing a KKK-supported man become President of the USA, over the body of the first woman presidential candidate.

In 2016.

Policing reactions is the most ridiculous fucking waste of time and plays right into the hands of the enemy.

It is a thing devisèd by the enemy,
To keep the strong in awe.
(Richard III)

Exactly.
"Shock" as a word is just shorthand for all the things: the piling up on top of things that then can only come out in a sequence. Abortion rights ecological care Black Lives the ACA the glee of the NRA more mass shootings KKK nuclear proliferation Russian mafia animals... everything, all at once blows through your body and so we say Shock.
